Burns was the story in RIT's 7-0 win over Clarkson in game two of a doubleheader on Saturday, throwing just 79 pitches, allowing just six hits, while walking zero to earn his first collegiate shutout. He faced just four batters over the minimum, while striking out two to earn his third win of the season. Burns recorded first pitch outs 10 times during the game. After great defensive help by Brett Kajganich to cut down a runner at the plate in the bottom of the sixth inning, Burns retired eight of the next nine batters and had that runner erased on a double play to secure the shutout win. He is now 3-1 with a 2.96 earned run average in 24 1/3 innings this season.
